Believe it or not, we're already down to just eight more weeks of regular-season football. After the long offseason, it's been a blur since Week 1 kicked off on a Thursday night in Kansas City. From injuries, sleepers, and busts to big-time wins and heartbreaking losses, the 2023 season continues to be a rollercoaster of emotions. Fortunately, those highs and lows are what keep us coming back for more DFS contests every week.
Last week was a solid one for many of our DraftKings lineup picks, from the Brock Purdy stack with Brandon Aiyuk to the decisions to play Najee Harris and Chris Olave, we ultimately walked away pleased in what's a game of luck at the end of the day. We can have all the right reads for the right reasons, but it's up to the players to produce. So, as we flip to Week 11, let's hope that the players we trust with our hard-earned money continue to write a positive script.
Before we break down all of our picks, here are the most notable scoring rules for DraftKings contests: Full-point PPR, four-point passing TDs, three-point bonuses for 100 rushing yards, 100 receiving yards, and 300 passing yards.
WEEK 11 FANTASY ADVICE: Sleepers | Busts | Projections | Start-sit
DraftKings Picks Week 11: NFL DFS lineup for GPP tournaments
Sunday main slate, $50,000 budget
QB Kyler Murray, Cardinals @ Texans ($6,100). The NFL season to this point has been a wild one, but it was always missing something. That something is Murray and his running ability that often leaves defenses picking their jaws up off the ground. The Falcons were reintroduced to the wizardry from the small quarterback in Week 10, who escaped defenders and managed to lead his team to victory. The rushing upside makes him a top quarterback option in fantasy, and his still-discounted price makes him a solid value in what could be a shootout in Houston.
RB David Montgomery, Lions vs. Bears ($6,500). Much like Murray, Montgomery also had a triumphant return to the lineup in Week 10. Maybe not the way fans expected, but Jahmyr Gibbs played a big role in the Lions' win over the Chargers, limiting Montgomery's touches to some degree. Despite that reality, Montgomery still ripped off a 75-yard touchdown run, finishing with over 100 yards on the ground with just 12 carries. Perhaps that was Detroit's way of working him back in, but the touchdown upside around the goal line leaves Montgomery as a player we'll continue to want in lineups.
WEEK 11 DFS:
FD lineup | Best values | Best stacks
RB Najee Harris, Steelers @ Browns ($5,100). For the second straight week, Harris is back in our DraftKings lineup. That's because he keeps on producing, adding his third TD in the past four games last week. Harris had 16 carries for the second straight game, turning in 82 rushing yards in the process. This week's test is a step up in class, but a matchup with the division-rival Browns is a familiar foe for the Steelers. Cleveland just allowed two more rushing touchdowns in Week 10, meaning that all four they've allowed this season have come in the past five games. The Steelers are trending up, and we expect their offense to continue finding its groove.
WR Garrett Wilson, Jets @ Bills ($6,400). The Bills are broken and losing to that Broncos team on Monday night could be a new low. It resulted in the firing of Ken Dorsey, but an offensive coordinator likely isn't going to fix this mess. Will that prevent Josh Allen from giving the football away like candy on Halloween? Will it suddenly fix the injuries that have decimated this defense? Of course not. Dorsey was a scapegoat for a larger problem and the spiral will likely continue. Naturally they have a great spot to stop the bleeding for a week against a Jets team that is allergic to the end zone. But while touchdowns haven't been there for the team, the Wilson-to-Wilson connection is a strong one. An added emphasis on getting the star receiver the ball has resulted in three straight games with at least seven catches and 80 yards. With over 13 targets a game, it's hard to not like the potential here. And one of Wilson's two touchdowns on the season came in Week 1 against these Bills. There's too much upside to pass up here and if by some miracle the Jets score a touchdown, Wilson is a good candidate to be involved.
WEEK 11 PPR RANKINGS:
QBs | RBs | WRs | TEs | D/STs | Kickers
WR Christian Kirk, Jaguars vs. Titans ($6,000). Kirk continues to be a model of consistency for the Jaguars. He turned in a 104-yard performance in Week 10 and continues to pace the team in targets with 71 this season. Despite the arrival of Calvin Ridley, it's been Kirk who's been firmly planted atop the receiving depth chart in Jacksonville, and now he gets a leaky Titans' secondary on Sunday. Tennessee has allowed a WR touchdown in four straight games and couldn't handle the Buccaneers' passing attack last week (278 passing yards, two TDs). If Tennessee sells out more to slow the run, the opportunities in the passing game can lead to a big day from Kirk.
WR Tank Dell, Texans vs. Cardinals ($5,900). There isn't a lot that isn't working right now for the Texans' offense. Dell is a big part of the success, scoring three touchdowns in his past two games despite catching just 12 of 25 targets from C.J. Stroud. There's more than enough meat being left on the bone here, and if the duo can see an uptick in efficiency, these numbers will go through the roof much like they have for fellow receiver Noah Brown.
WEEK 11 STANDARD RANKINGS:
QBs | RBs | WRs | TEs | D/STs | Kickers
TE Trey McBride, Cardinals @ Texans ($4,400). McBride had a coming-out party in Kyler Murray's return, totaling 131 yards and hauling in eight receptions on nine targets. The second-year tight end was far and away the best pass-catcher for the Cardinals in Week 10, easily outpacing Marquise Brown (one catches, 28 yards). Considering that the Texans have been one of the more vulnerable teams to TEs this season, allowing the fifth-most yards per game (63.9), this is a plus matchup in an offense that's on the rise. Don't discount the touchdown upside here either, as Houston's allowed three TE touchdowns in the past three games.
FLEX WR Terry McLaurin, Commanders vs. Giants ($5,800). Back to McLaurin we go after a quiet week in Seattle. The Washington receiver has been known to take advantage of his matchups with the Giants throughout his career, adding another 90 yards to the bottom line in their most recent battle in Week 7. Big Blue suddenly has big problems on defense, struggling against the run and pass. Most recently, they allowed two Cowboys receivers to eclipse 150 yards, and a 100-yard receiver on the Jets' anemic offense. Considering the way Sam Howell is playing right now, we like Scary Terry to turn up his game when he sees the blue and red across the field.
DEF Lions vs. Bears ($3,800). This week's quarterback options for Chicago include another installment of the Tyson Bagent experience or Justin Fields coming off a thumb injury. Neither sounds particularly exciting for Bears' fans, who will likely return to the pit of misery in Week 11. Detroit's defense will be looking to get back on track after being locked in a shootout with the Chargers in its most recent outing. We think they will.

MORE SUPERDRAFT DFS: How to play SuperDraft
- QB: Kyler Murray, Cardinals (Multiplier 1.3x)
- RB: David Montgomery, Lions (Multiplier 1.25x)
- RB: Josh Jacobs, Raiders (Multiplier 1.25x)
- WR: Tyreek Hill, Dolphins (Multiplier 1x)
- WR: CeeDee Lamb, Cowboys (Multiplier 1.05x)
- WR: Christian Watson, Packers (Multiplier 1.5x)
- TE: Trey McBride, Cardinals (Multiplier 1.35x)
- FLEX: RB Brian Robinson Jr., Commanders (Multiplier 1.35x)
Our SuperDraft lineup aims to accomplish a few goals -- find a capable stack with some snazzy multipliers and target high-volume players to deliver a solid floor. Murray and McBride clicked in their first game together this season, while Montgomery, Jacobs, Hill, and Lamb are all putting up great numbers in 2023. That leaves Watson and Robinson as two of the more undervalued options on the board with high ceilings.
